Description
Demonstration circuit 1687A features the LTC
high voltage monolithic synchronous buck-boost converter.
The DC1687A demo board has two user selectable operat-
ing modes: Burst Mode
operation (fixed frequency PWM) (JP1). There is also an
accurate programmable RUN pin which is used to enable
the converter (JP2).
The DC1687A operates with a 2.7V to 40V input volt-
age range. The demo board has been designed with the
output voltage set to 5.0V. The LTC3115-1 incorporates a
proprietary low noise switching algorithm which optimizes
efficiency with input voltages above, below or equal to the
output voltage and ensures seamless transitions between
operating modes.
The demo board has been programmed to operate at 1MHz
in PWM mode to optimize small size with high efficiency
operation.
